I mean that Emacs won't be able to start any thread (for example via
pthread_* functions).  I thought that --without-threads only removed the
Lisp support for threads because, from a debugging session, Emacs does
seem to continue to start threads.

(FWIW, I want this to simplify debugging because on my machine I cannot
make GDB to switch to the correct thread or to continue running other
threads)
